Exactly what I mean... More (and hopefully better ARF's). I didn;t address builder's kits and kit stuff, but I totally agree that there will be less of that type material built and sold. Ours LHS's...

Whether you like them or not IMO they will increase the number of flyers in the hobby. And eventually our selection and technology will improve. Just in the short time I've been in it I can see this...

That's crap... The pace setters as you call them are R&D guys and market research people at big companies now. It has nothing to do with an ARFer being a follower...

That is great insight Shaun... Retail is hard enough and even harder when the biggest distributors control big retail channels too (online, mail-order, etc.).

It is great though to see some hobby...

Point taken, but one giant mail order house already exists (and they own the mfg. and distributing for a bunch of brands) and the best way I can think of to combat it is to have more and better...

If you could design the "perfect" hobby shop in your area or online what would be different from what's available to you now (other than the obvious "lower prices" type comments)?

I chose a OS 52 and it was "scale"... Really needs a little more power (70 would be great). Great flying plane, but ground handling is squirrely (narrow gear). If you've flown bipes or other planes...

Ultra Stick 40.. Can it be a trainner?

That's what I'm talking about!

Ed is the first "long-timer" I've heard say that. If he'd been around when I was starting out I could have saved some money (and time).

Ultra Stick 40.. Can it be a trainner?

FWIW: I started (based on advice) with a high wing trainer and I didn't like how it flew then and I still dislike them. They are "mushy". Durin my first flights it was hard for me to judge its...

Can you over-rev in a dive?

Huh? Jett says not to use a regular fuel pump. That's why I didn't want to switch to a bladder (hassle factor).

Are others getting by using a normal fueler with these tanks?

How would you...
